Morning!

I saw a good part of the funeral Mass. It was one of the most inspiring moments in my lifetime.

As they carried Pope John Paul The Great out of the Basilica, the crowd clapped and just exploded with profound love and respect for this wonderful man. It brought tears to my eyes.

I have been up since 2. I watched the whole thing. Very moving and the emotion of the crowd was felt through the TV.

The casket had a book lying on top of it and as the wind blew the pages it was very inspiring.
